You’ll never be happy, never complete
To you there’s only a...

I was a priest and somehow can recall
the dim church, the heavy clouds of frankincense
and the knights and the peasants lined up for communion.
I chanted the...

He says we are the Chosen
His children, Our Saviour
The Family – one and all.
He says we are the Chosen

A single tear swerved the curve of cheek
dragging mascara behind like sorrow lingers
and heavy breath exhales 
as if they cost too much
she scrawls out words with 
ferocity and intent
weaving their magic to strangle his hold

The soldiers gathered at the wreath I remember.
The coffin covered just beneath I remember.

The poppies at the corner store I remember.
The amputees the coins were for I remember.

Floating
on a warm, oceanic wave
Tropical drowsiness drifting,
eyelids falling into corral reef fantasies
Oyster blue dreams,
aquatic Atlantis awaiting
Deep billowy yearning

A smile glowing in the undercurrent shadows
has a cerulean luminosity
It draws my...

We were all trained to push the limits of the human barrier.
physically growing stronger.
Mentally developing professionalism.

The remembrance of the vast desert, the lush-us green...

To dream like a phoenix, time to drone on
But dead like a doormat,unable to pain
Pillar of salt , summoned by the urgent sea
There to be drowned but for the...
